The Rise of the European Emperor

Chapter 514 The Saxon Threat Theory

Although, the part of the money that was sent to Worms to bribe the various princes must be offset, but it would only be hundreds of thousands of gold coins if he died.

However, thinking of the secret letter from Herman IV, while Marin was happy, there was still a shadow in his heart.

This shadow is the part of Frederick III's speech at the Imperial Council, emphasizing the threat of Marin to the princes. If it is summed up in the words of later generations, it is - "Marin Threat Theory".

This kind of argument does not take into account whether the person being smeared is peace-loving or not. Its argument is that you have great strength, or are about to have great strength, and you are a threat, a huge threat to world peace...

In later generations, poor Huaxia has been troubled by this baseless and unreasonable "Huaxia threat theory" for a long time. The West, based on the old beauty, ignores Huaxia's peace-loving character. They believe that China is strong, and as long as the Chinese people have a strong armed force, it will pose a serious threat to world peace...

This is a jerk... The overall military strength of Europe and the United States is stronger than that of China, why is no one talking about the threat of Europe and the United States? Especially the old beauty, who fanned the flames all over the world all day long, like a stirrer of world peace, but no one said the old beauty threat theory...

Of course, this is related to the fact that Laomei has the right to speak in the world. The allies of the old and the United States are all European powers, or such countries as the devil and the stick. These countries have a big voice in the world, and Laomei is the black boss, so everyone naturally advocates the justice of Laomei. And those who don't deal with Lao Mei are naturally smeared as evil...

And what about Huaxia? No allies at all. There is only one Pakistan-rail relationship in the surrounding area, which is a small and weak country such as Laos and Cambodia that has no sense of existence. As for Beibang, he is Maozi's younger brother and doesn't take Huaxia in his eyes at all. In addition to the surrounding countries, it is the allies of the black uncles in Africa. However, those black uncles and allies only played a role in voting at the General Assembly. Usually, there is no right to speak at all. In this way, Huaxia, like a dove of peace, has been described as a monster. And the old beauty, who was originally a fierce falcon, was disguised as a dove of peace, just like the cartoon that satirized the old beauty in World War I...

...

Marin doesn't want to mention the right and wrong of the previous life, but Marin knows that sometimes, publicity is very, very important.

Why did Frederick III have such a powerful voice? Isn't he famous and famous? In fact, apart from leading everyone to fight against Maximilian I, what did Frederick III do to benefit the country and the people? No……

Of course, that's a thing now. In history, there are two main achievements of Frederick III - the first is to secretly support Martin Luther to carry out the religious reform, which profoundly changed history; the second,

It was at the age of 19 that he voluntarily gave up his campaign for the throne and turned to support Charles V. Because, Charles V has enough strength to fight against the flourishing Ottoman Turkey... and therefore, he won the title of "wise Frederick"...

But, that's a year thing. It is to support Martin Luther's religious reform, and it is also a matter of later life. Moreover, supporting the religious reform is also because of the needs of interests, not how great Frederick III was. Because Protestantism supports the princes to confiscate the property of the Catholic Church, which is quite beneficial to the princes and nobles...

Therefore, for now, Frederick III has not yet achieved tangible achievements. His only achievement now is probably to lead the princes to fight the emperor...

However, this kind of thing can not be said. Because, according to the rules, the following grams are immoral. And Frederick III's reputation was also spread by the princes and nobles who supported him in the process of fighting against Maximilian I.

The common people in this period had no culture, and public opinion was naturally in the hands of the nobles. The princes and nobles said that Frederick III was good, and everyone followed suit. But what's good about it, the people don't actually know...

Inspired by the memory of his previous life, Marin decided to spread the "Saxony Threat Theory", publicize and exaggerate the strength and influence of the electoral state of Saxony, and warn the whole of Germany that Saxony is the one most likely to unify Germany behind the scenes...

In this way, by exaggerating the threat of Saxony, the relationship between those princes and Saxony can be divided, so that they are no longer one. At the same time, it also spreads the pressure on Marin.

Moreover, while exaggerating the strength of Saxony, Marin also intends to devalue his own strength through propaganda in order to reassure countries.

For example, Marin will publicize the army of 10,000 people like this—out of the 10,000 people, 10,000 people are temporarily borrowed by Marin from the mysterious chairman of the Morgan Chamber of Commerce. And this non-existent Morgan will be described by Marin as a mysterious mercenary leader... Under his command, there are 10,000 mercenaries composed of Englishmen...

In addition, Marin also planned to publicize the great battle born outside the city of Lübeck. The golden carriage that Kim I rode in is located right in the rear. Because of the lack of sufficient protection, the Wan reinforcements successfully captured the golden carriage, but they still let Frederick III escape...

In this way, Marin's victory, weakened by propaganda, seems all the more coincidental. As for Marin's previous use of 10,000 people in Hamburg to deceive and attract the attention of the Bosa coalition, Marin never mentioned it. He just wanted everyone to understand that winning that decisive battle was completely accidental... God didn't want the Bursa coalition to win...

Moreover, in the "Saxon Threat Theory", Marin pointed out that if the Bersa coalition forces won the war, Lübeck and Hamburg, the two most prosperous cities in Germany, would be ruthlessly looted by the coalition forces. In these two cities, there are properties worth about ten or twenty million Gulden Gold Coins. Once the Saxon army gets these assets, it will skyrocket in strength. It can even be said that the capital of a unified Germany is fully owned...

Because the Saxon army itself is very strong, and the Saxon elector Frederick III has a strong appeal among the princes, even the emperor...

Once the elector of Saxony, who has a strong military and is famous for the emperor, gains property worth tens of millions of Gulden gold coins, it is estimated that no one in Germany can stop Saxony from unifying Germany...

Therefore, Marin happened to defeat the Bursa coalition and defeated Frederick III, which was actually saving Germany. Otherwise, Saxony, which has captured Lübeck and Hamburg, will push and unify Germany with great strength...

Let me ask, if he does not fail, who can stop Frederick III, who has the command of ten thousand powerful soldiers? That's a thousand soldiers! No one in Germany can get it, but Frederick III did it...

If it hadn't been for Marin, the open-traveler, this army of thousands would definitely have walked sideways in the German region...

Of course, when promoting, Marin must have downplayed the final outcome, and then emphasized the heritage and strength of the electorate of Saxony, making people aware of the power and danger of Saxony.

In addition, in the propaganda, the greatness of Frederick III will also be exposed - Frederick III has mainly done one thing over the years, that is, lead people to fight against the emperor... Then, he became "great"...

As long as this fig leaf is torn open, Frederick III will fall to the altar, and his influence will be greatly reduced...
